Awesome post... but I have to admit, there's one thing going through my head when I paddle out:

warm is good.

Warm wetsuit
Cool water
50 degrees is not that cold
Scared watchers
Cold water haters
Bitchers
Moaners
Complainers
They need to stay home and watch TV
More waves for us

Rubber = freedom

Gman I am surprised you even have a couch?

Seems you spend most of your free time road doggin' to the next adventure?

You should just move into a sportsmobile van.

I concur. Paddling out in warm water and warm air is great, until you find yourself shoulder-to-shoulder with the fair weather populace. Our temps here in the PNW have a wonderful effect on crowds. Thumb's Up

This is winter on the west coast, even the californians are in wetsuits and this is the season, NOT SUMMER. All real surfers look forward to the winter swells and dread the summer flats.

It's ok....I'm over it. I realize that they are a young team and need a lot of work on the D side of the ball. Not as bitter as I should be.
